**** it, I took a chance on this too. Knowing how the 2007 boxset has gone through the roof in price, if I'm lucky enough to be able to get one of these now, I think I'll come to find that this will be a really good price. And if I don't get one, no harm done...

Thanks for the great tip Dale!

The 60mm Sith Lord - All the hate and anger you've come to expect, now in a new conveniently sized package!

I just got an email that one of my neighbor's brothers got pulled in the lottery for this one! No word on the Uzay trooper, but if I was going to get one this is the one I wanted. Its supposed to ship in May. I'm really geeked over this one.

For anyone curious to know what a Medicom lottery winner is paying for this piece, with shipping it comes to ~$38.00 delivered to your door in Japan. Ballpark figure, might be a little higher or lower depending on where you are in Japan.

It looks like the only 'bricks that were on display at the show this weekend (Winter WonderFest 2008) were the Blue Stars Snowtrooper and the Maul/Bloodfin set (pic courtesy of our friends at instictoy):

As with the Blue Stars figure, Medicom has begun shipping these within Japan. Or more specifically they've contacted recipients within Japan that they are now shipping these items. So maybe a couple of days to a week before they start showing up on ebay.
